Hollow, mold-made feet wearing shoes, from a figure of approximately life size. The shoes, which reach to the base of the ankles, appear to be made of fairly stiff leather, tooled with a floral pattern at the toe. The pattern consists of a lotus flower of Archaic style at the center, flanked at either side by three lines curving down to the sole.
